00:00:00I don't know if you can see it, but there's a lot of water in this area.
00:00:05It's a lot of water.
00:00:10It's a lot of water.
00:00:15It's a lot of water.
00:00:20It's a lot of water.
00:00:25It's a lot of water.
00:00:30It's a lot of water.
00:00:35It's a lot of water.
00:00:40It's a lot of water.
00:00:45It's a lot of water.
00:00:51It happened a long time ago.
00:00:56And now that I shouldn't be afraid anymore,
00:01:01I'm going to tell it bit by bit as I remember it.
00:01:06What happens to a man when he leads a life where goodness doesn't exist,
00:01:11and at times he feels like his heart will burst.
00:01:20Your life is no longer yours.
00:01:25You aren't free anymore.
00:01:30And your claws can't do any harm.
00:01:35Prison is so bitter, and there's such a taste of viciousness within its walls.
00:01:40This is our story.
00:01:45Do you know what a madrona is?
00:01:50It's a tree that each month, when the moon moves across the heavens like a silver cat's tail,
00:01:55the witches come to visit.
00:02:00And in the good trees, they cast their spells of joy.
00:02:05And the folks that know say,
00:02:10well, the ones whose hair is as white as corn silk,
00:02:15that at every new moon, the flowers of the madrona tree are full of the enchantment and good luck
00:02:20that the witches left on their previous visit.
00:02:25And that's why I went to the mountain and came back with a bunch of madrona flowers for Maria Elena.
00:02:30She was so fair and her eyes were so bright
00:02:35with the clearness and light of the clouds in the afternoon sky of an Indian summer.
00:02:40She had a timeless beauty.
00:02:51There was a man who pursued her harder than all the others put together,
00:02:56and he was respectfully called Don Miguel.
00:03:05Take my horse.
00:03:35Take my horse.
00:04:05I can't read.
00:04:07Doesn't matter. I'm a friend of the president.
00:04:11And as of this moment, the supreme authority of this pueblo.
00:04:16Tell that to everyone. The supreme authority.
00:04:26Her hair was blonde and so beautiful that many times in my memory,
00:04:31I compared it to a ray of sunshine resting on a rock in the middle of a stream.
00:04:36It was also long and soft like the pretty silk that grows around the begonias on the edge of the marsh.
00:04:56May the Lord be with you, senor Martinez.
00:04:58Afternoon, Juanito. Come on in.
00:05:00Who put the flowers in a vase?
00:05:02Did you hear we've got a new supreme authority?
00:05:05Guess it's the man who came on horseback.
00:05:07Hope he does good, now that the president gave him so much power over us.
00:05:12But I don't know why he needs authority in a place where nothing ever happens.
00:05:22Whenever we went to a dance,
00:05:24and the ranchers around there gave parties on every occasion they could think of,
00:05:28I remember I suffered a lot because the older men watched her and flirted with her in front of me.
00:05:35They spoke to her with ease and charm like I'd never been able to do.
00:05:39For those fine phrases and compliments, I knew nothing about.
00:05:58Good day, Marielena.
00:06:01Good day, Don Miguel.
00:06:03Did you have fun last night?
00:06:05The music was very beautiful.
00:06:07No more than you.
00:06:09And I dreamed about you in my sleep last night.
00:06:11And it was lovely having you in my dreams.
00:06:15This morning I thought, Miguel,
00:06:17I'd like to have you in my dreams.
00:06:20And I thought, Marielena,
00:06:22I'd like to have you in my dreams.
00:06:25This morning I thought, Miguel,
00:06:28you really ought to make those dreams come true.
00:06:31How about doing it?
00:06:36What?
00:06:38Have you gone deaf and dumb?
00:06:40You'll have time to laugh when you learn that love's a good thing.
00:06:56Did my daughter tell you about Don Miguel?
00:06:58Yes.
00:06:59Why don't you get married?
00:07:01Elena's 15 years old now.
00:07:03As your wife, he'll stop bothering her so much.
00:07:05And soon he'll be able to forget her.
00:07:07Yes, but first let me get together a little money for us.
00:07:17Good boy.
00:07:19Don Miguel,
00:07:22Good day, Senor Martinez.
00:07:24May God always be with you, Senor.
00:07:26Good day, Don Miguel.
00:07:30How's my little pigeon, Marielena?
00:07:37Pretty good. Pretty good.
00:07:39Every day a bit more lovely.
00:07:42Soft notice.
00:07:44She's about the right age for a man, I'd say.
00:07:46Yes.
00:07:47She'll be marrying Juanito soon.
00:07:49Juanito?
00:07:51He's still a baby chick.
00:07:53That little pigeon will have to mate with a rooster of experience.
00:08:02How many stars do you think there are in the sky?
00:08:04About a hundred.
00:08:05No, there are many more.
00:08:07And when we learn to count to more than a hundred, we'll know.
00:08:11You better start counting.
00:08:14One,
00:08:16two,
00:08:18three,
00:08:20four,
00:08:22five,
00:08:24six,
00:08:26seven.
00:08:32Twenty.
00:08:33Twenty-two.
00:08:40May the Lord be with you, Don Miguel.
00:08:42What are you doing here?
00:08:44Taking a walk, Don Miguel.
00:08:46I'm sure you're lying.
00:08:48She's coming with me under arrest.
00:08:50Don't touch her.
00:08:52Don't be such a tiger with my women, pretty boy.
00:09:13Don't kill him.
00:09:15No, no.
00:09:33Don Miguel.
00:09:34What do you want?
00:09:38Where is my daughter?
00:09:40Tell me, for the love of God.
00:09:43Do you want to take her home?
00:09:45The only thing I want is to be able to see her again.
00:09:49She's at the warrior's ranch. Go get her.
00:09:52Don Miguel,
00:09:54a maiden cannot be taken and violated
00:09:57the way you did.
00:09:59I ask you to please restore her honor.
00:10:03You're right.
00:10:04The leftover women were made
00:10:07for all the men who were born weaklings.
00:10:10So tell that cowherd Juanito
00:10:13to marry her the way God wishes.
00:10:16And I don't want to see him around here again.
00:10:18Because the next time I do,
00:10:20I'll use my machete on him where it hurts.
00:10:22As for Maria Elena, there's nothing to do about it.
00:10:26What's happened now?
00:10:29I saw that man.
00:10:30Where's Maria Elena?
00:10:32I'll tell you the way he told me.
00:10:34Tell that cowherd Juanito that I'm giving her back
00:10:36so that he can marry her as God wishes.
00:10:39He has to go for her at the warrior's ranch.
00:10:41And he must leave the town forever.
00:10:44If you still love her and want her,
00:10:46I'll go with you.
00:11:09It's the same today.
00:11:10It's the same today.
00:11:11It's the same today.
00:11:12It's the same today.
00:11:13It's the same today.
00:11:14It's the same today.
00:11:15It's the same today.
00:11:16It's the same today.
00:11:17It's the same today.
00:11:18It's the same today.
00:11:19It's the same today.
00:11:20It's the same today.
00:11:21It's the same today.
00:11:22It's the same today.
00:11:23It's the same today.
00:11:24It's the same today.
00:11:25It's the same today.
00:11:26It's the same today.
00:11:27It's the same today.
00:11:28It's the same today.
00:11:29It's the same today.
00:11:30It's the same today.
00:11:31It's the same today.
00:11:32It's the same today.
00:11:33It's the same today.
00:11:34It's the same today.
00:11:35It's the same today.
00:11:37It's the same today as it was in that moment.
00:11:42It's as if it had happened yesterday.
00:11:45Everything that happened, I still have locked in my brain.
00:11:50Like something that you can't and you mustn't forget.
00:11:54Behind us, the wind continued to cry as it passed through the trees,
00:11:59as if it were trying to scream about a hidden sorrow.
00:12:04Behind us, the wind continued to cry as it passed through the trees,
00:12:09as if it were trying to scream about a hidden sorrow.
00:12:33As if it were trying to scream about a hidden sorrow.
00:13:03As if it were trying to scream about a hidden sorrow.
00:13:33As if it were trying to scream about a hidden sorrow.
00:14:03As if it were trying to scream about a hidden sorrow.
00:14:09The rest of the afternoon I spent with my heart stuck in the middle of my throat.
00:14:16I had never even learned to cry to find a release for my feelings.
00:14:22And so I passed the hours thinking and thinking
00:14:26until there was nothing that hadn't received the sharp cut of my axe.
00:14:34With the blade of my machete,
00:14:37it would have been easy to slice away even a thought.
00:14:43She never said anything.
00:14:46But I felt her silent pain.
00:14:49It made her suffer and wither away.
00:14:52I felt her pain.
00:14:55It made her suffer and wither away.
00:14:58I felt her pain.
00:15:00I felt her silent pain.
00:15:03It made her suffer and was always there under the shadow of her tearful eyes.
00:15:08Like the drops that gather on the leaves of the plants
00:15:12after the storm has passed.
00:15:15Let's go to the mountains to get flowers.
00:15:18We'll go tomorrow. I have to finish the fence for the chicken coop.
00:15:22Why haven't my parents and my sister come to visit?
00:15:26They were here last week.
00:15:27We have to get out of here.
00:15:29You have to rule a lot.
00:15:31Your parents have never come.
00:15:33One of these days we'll go to the Pueblo.
00:15:36One of these days.
00:15:42Are you happy?
00:15:52The months came and the months went.
00:15:56And the joys arrived after the months.
00:15:59And with them the sorrows went away.
00:16:03The priest is going to come on Saturday to marry the couples who are living together.
00:16:07Do you think you'd like to get married?
00:16:09What for?
00:16:11There are plenty of pretty pigeons here to my liking.
00:16:14After you took Maria Elena,
00:16:16all the pigeons 13 and 14 years old began flirting with you, Don Miguel.
00:16:20So I've noticed.
00:16:22And a few of them are ready to be tasted.
00:16:23What about Maria Elena? Have you seen her again?
00:17:23Get out of here!
00:17:53Get out of here!
00:18:24Hello there.
00:18:26How are things with my pretty pigeon?
00:18:53Get out of here!
00:19:24You whore, you liar!
00:19:26It's time to seize the father of your child!
00:19:42Maria Elena!
00:19:50Maria Elena!
00:19:53Maria Elena!
00:19:59Maria Elena!
00:20:01Maria Elena!
00:20:23Maria Elena!
00:20:53Maria Elena!
00:21:14Shut up!
00:21:15Get in there!
00:21:17Get going, you guys. Now move along.
00:21:19Hurry up now!
00:21:20Get moving!
00:21:21Pick up your feet!
00:21:22Come on!
00:21:23Don't look at me like that!
00:21:25Move along now!
00:21:26In you go!
00:21:30Come on, don't bunch up around the door!
00:21:32Stay in line!
00:21:33Let's keep some order in here!
00:21:34Get ready for two more!
00:21:36Now pay attention!
00:21:37Keep them moving in here!
00:21:39Hurry up!
00:21:40That's it! That's it!
00:21:45One coming in!
00:21:46Let's go! Let's go! Line up! Line up!
00:21:48Come on, handsome! Move your ass!
00:21:50Come on, let's get out of here!
00:21:52What happened? Stay where you are!
00:21:54Stay put or I'll blow your heads off!
00:21:56No!
00:21:57Nobody move!
00:21:58He's no good! Get him out!
00:22:19Come on, let's go!
00:22:49Come on, let's go!
00:23:19Come on, let's go!
00:23:50Come on!
00:23:52Come on!
00:24:08Over here!
00:24:10Over here!
00:24:12Come on!
00:24:14More! More!
00:24:16Come on now!
00:24:20What's your name?
00:24:27Open up!
00:24:28Open up!
00:24:48Who's that bastard that keeps on crying?
00:24:50My brother, Gerardo.
00:24:52He's about to die!
00:24:54Shut your face and let the kid die in peace!
00:24:56Hey, Juan!
00:24:57Divide up your brother's food for all of us!
00:25:00If he can't live much longer, what's he eating for?
00:25:02Hey, you pig! Give me some food too!
00:25:28My brother has passed away!
00:25:31My brother has passed away!
00:25:34My brother Gerardo is dead!
00:25:43Juan, Juan!
00:25:45Juan!
00:25:47Juan!
00:25:49Juan!
00:25:50Juan!
00:25:51Juan!
00:25:52Juan!
00:25:54Juan!
00:25:55Juan!
00:25:56He's ice cold.
00:26:13Why don't we try to keep it a secret for about three or four days?
00:26:16Because they'll still give us his meals.
00:26:19The stench would be unbearable.
00:26:20Oh, how delicate you are.
00:26:22The smell of the latrine is worse.
00:26:24Guards!
00:26:25There's a dead man in here!
00:26:26Shut your plant down!
00:26:27I'll call a squad of undertakers.
00:26:28Open up!
00:26:59There, in the corner.
00:27:21Take him away!
00:27:25Let go of him! Let go of him!
00:27:55They've got another one to amuse themselves with.
00:28:04Yeah, they might show respect, at least for the dead.
00:28:08If they touch my brother, they'll be dead.
00:28:25Water!
00:28:54We'll pass around the water and nothing more. Come on, get going.
00:29:14Just look at that poor old man.
00:29:18That's the worst torture of all.
00:29:21But Anzio punished him because he tried to kill a cellmate who wanted to screw him while he was asleep.
00:29:27And now he passes out the water without drinking himself.
00:29:52Pull along, pull along!
00:30:04Get up your feet, men, pick them up.
00:30:33Come on, keep moving.
00:30:42Get the ladder, hurry up.
00:30:51Move along.
00:30:55Come on, get up.
00:31:16I hope your pelican doesn't sink.
00:31:19I've dissected everything, even dogs.
00:31:25And this isn't going to be the start of my bad luck.
00:31:34It'll work, don't you worry.
00:31:45At five o'clock we'll be finished.
00:31:50Nothing will happen.
00:31:53Everyone's forbidden to mistreat those birds by orders of the commandant.
00:31:57Come on, you filthy scum, we're behind schedule. Get moving.
00:32:02I am Nicanor.
00:32:04Oh yes, I know. I promised one afternoon last week to help you.
00:32:09What do you want?
00:32:10The bird vendor is planning to escape today.
00:32:37In an hour the tide will come in and we'll leave.
00:32:53Very good work, Captain.
00:32:55Thank you, sir.
00:33:22We've got to hurry before it's time for roll call.
00:33:50You idiot, don't you know it's forbidden to hurt the pelicans?
00:34:19We're not good.
00:34:39We're not good.
00:34:51We're not good.
00:35:20We're not good.
00:35:49We're not good.
00:36:10Soldiers.
00:36:39We've done enough for today, children.
00:36:46Return to the prison.
00:36:58Come on, hurry up.
00:36:59Get your men here.
00:37:00Come on.
00:37:01Line up.
00:37:02Hurry up.
00:37:03Let's go.
00:37:04Come on.
00:37:05Straighten out now.
00:37:06Hurry up.
00:37:07Get in line.
00:37:08Come on now.
00:37:09Get in line.
00:37:10No.
00:37:11Hurry up.
00:37:12Line up to the right.
00:37:13Let's go.
00:37:1414, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24.
00:37:17Colonel, in that section there's one missing.
00:37:19No one is missing.
00:37:21Colonel.
00:37:22No one's missing.
00:37:23Get moving.
00:37:26Right face.
00:37:27Right face.
00:37:28Forward.
00:37:29Come on.
00:37:30Get moving.
00:37:31Come on out there.
00:38:00Come on.
00:38:30He's driving us all crazy again.
00:38:48Shut up, you son of a bitch.
00:39:15Lend me your guitar, huh, fella?
00:39:17You don't lend someone a guitar, friend.
00:39:19You might lend a woman, but never a guitar.
00:39:25And just how much do you think your instrument's worth?
00:39:29A hundred.
00:39:42Get up.
00:39:50What's the matter?
00:39:52The same as ever, sir.
00:39:54A wound from the irons.
00:39:55Take him to the ironsmith to be cured.
00:39:57You two over there, come here.
00:39:59Help him.
00:40:01Escort, give us a hand.
00:40:05Let's go.
00:40:09Ow.
00:40:21Here comes another one for you, big boy.
00:40:31The leg's full of gangrene.
00:40:38Take it easy, honey.
00:40:41Have to cut it off.
00:40:42Cut.
00:40:43Cut it.
00:40:44Cut it, my ass.
00:40:45You won't cut it off.
00:40:46Let me go, you sons of bitches.
00:40:49No, you damn coward bastards.
00:40:54No.
00:40:57Please don't cut off my leg for the love of heaven.
00:41:27Cut.
00:41:28Cut.
00:41:29Cut.
00:41:30Cut.

00:44:37You bloody, thirsty gods will surely tear you apart.
00:44:42I beg you, son.
00:44:43Give me the iron bar right now.
00:44:45I promise by my military word of honor that no one will harm you.
00:44:53Stand back.
00:44:54I give my word and it will be kept.
00:44:56Take him away without hurting him.
00:45:02Halt! Open the ranks!
00:45:17Soldiers face front!
00:45:18Face front!
00:45:19As you see, I keep my word, but the discipline of the prison must be kept no matter what
00:45:45the cost.
00:45:47Let go of me, you damn fool! Let go of me!
00:45:54Keep still!
00:45:56As you were!
00:45:58Follow me!
00:46:09Dearest nephew,
00:46:10I, nephew, I have never asked you for anything.
00:46:22I have never asked you for anything.
00:46:27Never?
00:46:29I have never asked you for anything.
00:46:33Anything?
00:46:35But it's that now I need it very much.
00:46:40In another week I'll be out free.
00:46:44The stupid judge acquitted me.
00:46:47What will your wife say?
00:46:50What do I care?
00:46:52The bitch took another man three years ago.
00:46:55And now the judge says I'm innocent.
00:47:10Wait a minute.
00:47:20You write it however you like.
00:47:22The main thing is that he sends the money.
00:47:25And what do you want the money for?
00:47:27I want to buy the guitar from the Negro Smith.
00:47:41I've heard that it's really marvelous to witness the way that these men live in this prison.
00:47:46You're very lucky because until now no woman has ever entered this prison.
00:47:50What an honor.
00:48:10Why are they beating them up?
00:48:12I don't know.
00:48:14I don't know either.
00:48:16I don't know either.
00:48:18I don't know either.
00:48:20I don't know either.
00:48:22I don't know either.
00:48:24I don't know either.
00:48:26I don't know either.
00:48:28I don't know either.
00:48:30I don't know either.
00:48:32I don't know either.
00:48:34I don't know either.
00:48:36I don't know either.
00:48:38I don't know either.
00:48:40Why are they beating them up like that?
00:48:42They aren't really beating.
00:48:44They are often able to break the rivet they have on their feet or their wrists.
00:48:48That closes the irons.
00:48:50They find many ingenious ways to do it.
00:48:53Sometimes they fasten their iron with a new clasp that they make out of a piece of metal like a one of steel, a tin plate or a big nail.
00:49:00And that's what the guard is doing making sure that the irons sound the same.
00:49:05It's a way to prevent escapes.
00:49:10What is that, Colonel?
00:49:12The inmates also have an orchestra.
00:49:15Something that proves the cheerfulness of their lives here.
00:49:18They sing and dance happily in prison.
00:49:21Captain, bring the orchestra.
00:49:24Yes, Colonel.
00:49:40All the orchestra, outside.
00:50:08Where are you going?
00:50:09That piece of junk guitar was playing in the band, outside.
00:50:14Come on.
00:50:18Not you, faggot queens.
00:50:32Come on.
00:50:52Come on.
00:51:12Stupid!
00:51:32Sit down.
00:51:54Just six months ago, this letter arrived for you.
00:51:56Take it.
00:52:20Take it.
00:52:40Take it.
00:52:58Here are the hundred pesos you asked for.
00:53:01Now give me the guitar.
00:53:03I'll tell you the real truth.
00:53:04I was only joking.
00:53:05I love it more than my life.
00:53:07No, you weren't joking.
00:53:09You told me a hundred pesos and here they are.
00:53:15Keep your word to him.
00:53:22All right, I'll keep my word as I said.
00:53:30You want the handkerchief too?
00:53:32No, you keep the handkerchief for yourself.
00:53:34Thank you.
00:53:47Finally, I'll be able to live in peace.
00:53:51You instrument of the devil.
00:54:14I love you.
00:54:43The letter.
00:54:51It's been years since I've had the honor of seeing you, Colonel Vargas.
00:54:55So it has.
00:54:57Not since the times in military school in the Republic of Chile.
00:55:00A whiskey, Colonel?
00:55:01No, thank you.
00:55:03The president has sent you this.
00:55:28I can't believe this.
00:55:30That bastard of a president plainly accuses me of beatings and killings of the prisoners.
00:55:35It's that the family of Jorge Barrientos heard that he died of a beating and was thrown in the sea.
00:55:40And since they're friends of the president...
00:55:43No one is assassinated here.
00:55:45And for Jose Barrientos, he was killed while trying to escape.
00:55:48And I have it recorded in the book.
00:55:50He and all the others who suffer the same fate.
00:55:54Accident or not, the truth is I was given the task of notifying you...
00:55:58That the general president of the Republic has ordered me to take immediate command of the island.
00:56:04And that you're to present yourself at headquarters tomorrow morning.
00:56:08Tell that old asshole of your general that I'll miss out on I'm in command.
00:56:12Gentlemen, please.
00:56:15You'll be sorry for this. I swear you're crazy, Venecio.
00:56:18Your mother will be the sorry one to have borne you if you return here.
00:56:23Tell this to the president.
00:56:26That as of today, this island is a free republic.
00:56:53Colonel!
00:57:13About face!
00:57:15Present arms!
00:57:46I speak to all of you, my beloved sons.
00:57:50To bring the good tidings today to one and all that I...
00:57:54Venecio Salvatierra Lopez.
00:57:58Colonel of the first regiment of the cavalry.
00:58:02Commandant of the penitentiary of this island.
00:58:06I say this before some brainless idiot son of a bitch.
00:58:11I say this before some brainless idiot starts to imagine that I'm in the military for the fun of it.
00:58:23At this moment, with the help of the good lord...
00:58:26And the almighty inspiration of my conscience...
00:58:30I declare freedom, sovereignty and independence for this island.
00:58:37And I proclaim it a free republic.
00:58:44I name myself president.
00:58:47Warning that if anyone disagrees with this nomination...
00:58:53That means you, the jackals of the guard.
00:58:56Executioners of the slaughterhouse.
00:58:59Slaves to the uniform.
00:59:06The same goes for you, my beloved sons.
00:59:10The swindlers and assassins, rapists, maniacs...
00:59:14Sodomites, thieves, criminals, degenerates.
00:59:19Locked in here by order of a government of despotic tyranny.
00:59:23Speak out now because I'll hold court-martial for him for treason against the new form state to be shot at once.
00:59:37And now, through the faculty of my new powers as your president of the republic...
00:59:45From this moment on, I forbid any form whatever of slavery.
00:59:50The penitentiary of this island is now dead.
00:59:54Long live the republic.
00:59:56I declare all of you the founders of the newly formed republic.
01:00:00And I accept with great joy the offer you have made me to be the very first president.
01:00:08I wish to repeat that if anyone does not agree with this...
01:00:13They should make it known at once that I am the new president of the republic.
01:00:19I wish to repeat that if anyone does not agree with this...
01:00:24They should make it known at once and be sent to be shot.
01:00:34All the prisoners are now free men.
01:00:39But any one citizen who wishes to abandon this island without permission from the council of the general staff will be shot.
01:00:50Now repeat after me.
01:00:52Viva la republica!
01:00:54Viva!
01:00:56Viva me!
01:00:58Long live me!
01:01:00No, you idiots! Viva General Valencio!
01:01:03Viva!
01:01:05Viva General Valencio!
01:01:07Viva General Valencio!
01:01:10General.
01:01:12That's not bad.
01:01:14That gives me the same rank as a stupid president.
01:01:19And because the title expresses the wishes of the people...
01:01:23I accept.
01:01:26Come out! You're free by orders of General Valencio.
01:01:34I got so accustomed to this damn thing, I'm going to miss it.
01:01:40It's the same for all of us.
01:01:42Who's the officer who knows about boats and sailing?
01:01:47I name you Minister of the Navy.
01:01:50You'll answer to me with your life for the five boats that we possess.
01:01:53Yes, Mr. President.
01:01:56Lieutenant.
01:01:58I'm going to kill you.
01:02:00I'm going to kill you.
01:02:02I'm going to kill you.
01:02:04I'm going to kill you.
01:02:06I'm going to kill you.
01:02:08I'm going to kill you.
01:02:10Lieutenant.
01:02:13I name you Minister of Defense.
01:02:16Train the prisoners, but don't issue arms.
01:02:18Yes, Mr. President.
01:02:22One of the prisoners was formerly a school teacher.
01:02:25I've been thinking about naming him Minister of Education and Foreign Affairs.
01:02:30Locate him.
01:02:32His name is Nicanor.
01:02:34As of this moment, you will occupy the honored post of Minister of Education and Foreign Affairs of our independent republic.
01:02:42See that he has the proper clothes.
01:02:50Come on.
01:03:04Colonel Bonasso has gone off his rocker.
01:03:06And it's imperative we take him prisoner.
01:03:08He has all the inmates on his side.
01:03:10They don't count.
01:03:12Even if that were so,
01:03:14we've sworn our loyalty to the President.
01:03:16We'll arrest him.
01:03:20Have your arms ready.
01:03:22If it's necessary, we'll have to kill him
01:03:24and all those who are with him.
01:03:26Stay where you are or I'll have you shot.
01:03:30I accuse you of insubordination and planning a rebellion
01:03:33in a state of war.
01:03:35You will be shot as traitors whenever I please.
01:03:39Take them to the guardhouse and lock them up.
01:04:03Let's go.
01:04:33Let's go.
01:05:03Let's go.
01:05:34Oh.
01:05:55For spying,
01:05:57sneaking, informing, and betraying,
01:06:00and loyalty to the new government,
01:06:02I appoint you captain.
01:06:05Your very first mission will be to design and manufacture medals
01:06:08to be used for decorating you
01:06:10and all the brave soldiers in our forces
01:06:12before every battle.
01:06:30Let's go.
01:06:50The worst possible thing they could do
01:06:52was to take off the chains
01:06:54and give us hope again.
01:06:56What's the use of our being free
01:06:58to decide?
01:07:00It's nearly 15 years now that I haven't seen my sons.
01:07:04Oh.
01:07:25You have ample powers to bring about the signing of a treaty
01:07:28with the president.
01:07:30In no moment must you show weakness.
01:07:32And remember that a great army on the brink of war is behind you.
01:07:36The destiny of the fatherland lies in your hands.
01:08:03I propose a toast to the new republic.
01:08:15Because I have never enjoyed doing anything halfway,
01:08:19I,
01:08:21Venancio Salvatierra Lopez,
01:08:24elected president by the free will of all the people,
01:08:28after much deep thinking and studying conscientiously
01:08:31the problem have arrived at the following conclusion.
01:08:36It is necessary for us to have our very own flag.
01:08:43And who knows?
01:08:46Even our own anthem.
01:08:54Are you quite comfortable, Your Excellency,
01:08:56Minister of Education and Foreign Affairs
01:08:59of the Independent Republic?
01:09:01You'll have to forgive me and understand that matters of state
01:09:04have kept me from receiving you at the palace.
01:09:07I was told that General Venancio has sent you here
01:09:10to tell me something about the revolution.
01:09:12And you will see for yourself what will happen to that criminal.
01:09:16I've already sent him my answer.
01:09:20I was sent here to report to you, sir,
01:09:22about the reception of meetings that awaited us.
01:09:24And that he was going to request permission of Congress
01:09:27because he wanted the honor of coming to visit you.
01:09:32Was he serious?
01:09:36Bring the cannon!
01:09:38And put it over there!
01:09:40And put it out that way!
01:09:54THE REVOLUTION
01:10:25THE REVOLUTION
01:10:33Aim across the starboard bow!
01:10:43Turn it around!
01:10:45To help me!
01:10:48THE REVOLUTION
01:10:53A distance of 1,000 meters.
01:10:55Then bear fire to the right.
01:11:04Fire!
01:11:05Fire!
01:11:12Fire!
01:11:18THE REVOLUTION
01:11:21Cease firing!
01:11:23Come on! Forward, everyone!
01:11:25Get a move on!
01:11:27Forward!
01:11:32Lower the boat!
01:11:34Come on! Move in over there!
01:11:38THE REVOLUTION
01:11:48THE REVOLUTION
01:11:53What are you waiting for?
01:11:55Here we are!
01:11:57Disembark now!
01:12:04THE REVOLUTION
01:12:17THE REVOLUTION
01:12:28Well, it looks like they surrendered.
01:12:31Stupid cowards.
01:12:33This is our best chance.
01:12:35The first thing that Captain Astua will do when he gets out of prison
01:12:39is put all of us in chains again.
01:12:41Yeah, Juanito, whatever you say.
01:12:43On the other side of those mountains, life is beautiful.
01:12:46And it's free.
01:13:00By direct order of your president,
01:13:03no one is to pay any more attention to Colonel Venancio.
01:13:07And you are advised that if in 20 minutes you don't surrender,
01:13:11all the prisoners as well as the soldiers
01:13:14will be blown to bits by the cannon.
01:13:18For every one of you,
01:13:20our good president has given his solemn oath
01:13:23to forgive and pardon you.
01:13:25Therefore, I ask for you to put down your arms.
01:13:44THE REVOLUTION
01:14:14THE REVOLUTION
01:14:45Stop there, men.
01:14:52Set fire to this whole side.
01:14:54You heard him. Come on.
01:15:15Like snakes, let them burn.
01:15:24The fire will save us. They won't be...
01:15:26They won't be able to reach us.
01:15:28The wind's blowing this way.
01:15:35Captain! There they go!
01:15:44THE REVOLUTION
01:16:14THE REVOLUTION
01:16:44THE REVOLUTION
01:16:54The wind's beginning to blow hard.
01:16:56We couldn't reach them even in the boat.
01:16:58Tomorrow they'll be on one of those little islands.
01:17:01If the sharks don't decide to eat them tonight.
01:17:06Don't swim anymore. Let the current pull you along.
01:17:08Where will the current take us?
01:17:10We'll come to the island of San Jeronimo, I would guess.
01:17:15It's all over, Juanito. It's all over.
01:17:18The life of the dam that we were leading will never be again.
01:17:21Never. It'll never be again.
01:17:25It's over. It's all over now.
01:17:38Two desperate men have just escaped from the prison.
01:17:40They're accused of committing many crimes.
01:17:43They're very dangerous and capable of murdering anyone.
01:17:51The commander of the harbor patrol hereby warns the public
01:17:57against two escaped convicts.
01:18:00For their capture, dead or alive, we offer the following reward.
01:18:05Two pounds of rice, three pounds of potatoes,
01:18:09two pounds of coffee, three pounds of sugar.
01:18:14Two pounds of cocoa powder, one can of sardines,
01:18:19ten packs of cigarettes, one dozen boxes of matches,
01:18:25and three silver pesos in cash.
01:19:14Keep going. A bit farther and we'll be on the beach.
01:19:18Look, a shark.
01:19:22I see them. Keep on swimming without missing a stroke.
01:19:26Same rhythm. Don't splash the water. We mustn't attract their attention.
01:19:31I see them. Keep on swimming without missing a stroke.
01:19:35Same rhythm. Don't splash the water. We mustn't attract their attention.
01:20:31Christian. Juanito.
01:20:36For three days now, they haven't brought any water.
01:20:42Since you both escaped...
01:20:48I've been looking for you.
01:20:51I've been looking for you.
01:20:54I've been looking for you.
01:21:01Since you both escaped, haven't brought any water.
01:21:06How did you learn about our escape?
01:21:09I heard the cannon.
01:21:12Yesterday, the patrol passed by here.
01:21:17But they didn't leave me any water or food
01:21:20because they said you could come and take it away from me.
01:21:26Take it away from me.
01:21:29No. I'm gonna die. I'm gonna die.
01:21:34I'm gonna die.
01:21:37I'm gonna die.
01:21:40I'm gonna die.
01:21:52Take hold of his leg.
01:21:59Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
01:22:29I'm to weak to swim. It's better that you die in the sea and not here. This man was
01:22:51sentenced to be killed. I might at least have some hope in the ocean. If I remain here,
01:22:58There's absolutely no hope for me.
01:23:03The problem is that the blood will attract the sharks.
01:23:08It'll be better that way.
01:23:10We had some rotten shark meat with us which usually keeps them away.
01:23:13The waves were so strong that we lost all of it.
01:23:22I'm going to put this marker here.
01:23:25When the sun gets to it, start swimming south.
01:23:28And by then we should be able to reach that island over there.
01:23:58Take him out.
01:24:29A few hours later
01:24:43Rice, three pounds of potatoes,
01:24:46two pounds of coffee, three pounds of sugar,
01:24:49two pounds of cocoa powder,
01:24:51one can of sardines,
01:24:53ten packs of cigarettes,
01:24:54one dozen boxes of matches,
01:24:58and three silver pesos in cash.
01:25:01That's what life was worth
01:25:04for a convict on the island of lonely men.
